What is U.S. CPA?
The Certified Public Accountant (CPA) is the highest accounting credential in the U.S. and is similar to the CA Qualification in India.
The CPA title is awarded by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountant.

U.S. CPA is an individual with thorough and complete knowledge of Accounting principles of the U.S. So, if you want to work in or for U.S. firms, understanding its accounting laws is essential.

U.S. CPA members and students play a vital role in both 'practice' and 'industry' in sectors such as financial services, banking, manufacturing, construction, education and consultancy.

The services of U.S. CPA are required in all areas of the business world
• Assurance and Attest Services
• Financial Accounting
• Management Consulting and Performance Management
• Information Technology
(especially as applied to accounting and auditing)
• Corporate Finance
(Merger & Acquisition, initial public offerings, share & debt issuings)
• Financial Planning
• Financial Analysis
• Venture Capital
• Forensic Accounting
   (preventing, detecting, and investigating financial   frauds)
• Tax Preparation and Planning
• Estate Planning
• Corporate Governance
• Income Tax
While some CPAs are generalists and may offer a range of services (especially those in small practices) many CPAs specialize in just one area and may provide only one of the services listed above.


OVERVIEW
We often see people who are citizens of other countries in our courses. They tell us that a U.S. CPA certificate is valuable on a resume for someone in international business.

There are 54 different offices in the U.S.A. to which you can send an application to become a U.S. CPA (that's right, 54!). Each of the 50 states issues its own CPA certificate, as do Washington D.C., Guam, Puerto Rico, and the U.S. Virgin Islands. Education and experience requirements vary by state.

If you know the state in which you would like to apply, see the state boards. If you aren't sure in which state to apply, you are looking at the right page. Keep reading......
________________________________________

The minimum educational requirement to sit for the U.S. CPA exam is generally a four year university degree. Most states require 150 university semester hours before you can sit for the CPA exam.

You can not take the U.S. CPA examination outside the U.S. It is offered only in the U.S.A.

Once you have passed the exam in one state you can transfer to another state. You will have to meet the education and experience requirements of the new state, but normally you are given credit for having already passed the CPA exam.

CHARTERED ACCOUNTANTS

The CPA certificate is not directly comparable to the articles of a chartered accountant. A chartered accountant who wishes to have a U.S. CPA certificate must take the exam to become a U.S. CPA. The only exception is a special examination for members of the Canadian Institute of Chartered Accountants (CICA), the Institute of Chartered Accountants in Australia (ICAA), CPA Australia, the Institute of Chartered Accountants in Ireland (ICAI) and the Instituto Mexicano De Contadores Publicos (IMCP). The National Association of State Boards of Accountancy (NASBA) web site has information on the IQEX examination. (On that page click "EXAMS" then "IQEX")
RESIDENCY AND CITIZENSHIP

Some states do not require that you be a resident of the state or a U.S. citizen to earn a CPA certificate issued by that state. The last time we checked, these states were:
• Alaska
• California
• Colorado
• Connecticut
• Delaware
• Florida
• Georgia

• Massachusetts
• Montana

EXPERIENCE

Some states will grant a CPA certificate with no experience, but require evidence of experience before a "permit to practice" is issued. If you just want a U.S. CPA certificate for your resume, you might investigate the current requirements of these states. The last time we checked, these states were:
• Alabama
• District of Columbia
• Florida
• Guam
• Illinois
• Iowa
• Kansas
• Louisiana
• Maryland
• Minnesota
• Mississippi
• Missouri
• Montana
• Nebraska
• North Dakota
• Oklahoma
• Puerto Rico
• South Dakota
• Virginia
• Washington
• West Virginia
• WyomingSTATES THAT DON'T REQUIRE 150 SEMESTER HOURS OF UNIVERSITY

Most states have adopted a 150 university semester hour educational requirement. A few states require only a four year university degree. Each state has specific requirements for evaluation of your transcripts, so you must pick a state before you can have your transcripts evaluated. The last time we checked, the states requiring only four years were:
• California
• Colorado
• Delaware
• New Hampshire
• Vermont
• Virgin Islands


Certified Public Accountant (CPA) is the statutory title of qualified accountants in the United States who have passed the Uniform Certified Public Accountant Examination and have met additional state education and experience requirements for certification as a CPA. The CPA degree offered by ICFAI is relatively new course and it's credentials regarding to jobs is not well established yet. Considering the curriculum, this degree would prepare you and equip you with knowledge of auditing like CA's and CWA's but won't have statutory powers like CA's and CWA's in India. Considering the above career prospects of CPA would be similar to those of CA's and CWA's but limited to a extent like when someone is working without powers or license. They can prepare financial statements of the companies, however they can't attest it like CA's.

• The minimum educational requirement to sit for the U.S. CPA exam is generally a four year university degree. Most states require 150 university semester hours before you can sit for the CPA exam.

You can not take the U.S. CPA examination outside the U.S. It is offered only in the U.S.A.

What is the ACCA?ACCA stands for the Association of Chartered Certified Accountants, which is a leading international accountancy body. Its members are required to pass a series of examinations in order to qualify. The qualification is internationally recognised and is treated in other countries as being equivalent to the local one.
The examinations cover all aspects of business management from the purely technical - such as bookkeeping and cost accounting - to the more theoretical aspects such as motivational theory and theories of risk.
The ACCA qualification delivers professional accountants who are capable of building successful careers across all sectors, from practising in accounting firms, to the corporate, financial services and public sectors
In this respect it is very similar to an MBA, but it offers a much more practical emphasis. The qualification is not aimed at any one particular business sector - the examinations cover all areas of business management.
The ACCA Qualification is designed to deliver a broad-based qualification, focusing on the essential skills of accounting, business and finance - without introducing unnecessary barriers to membership. It offers a choice of examinations and work experience competences to allow students and their sponsors to tailor the path of the qualification to suit their needs and aspirations.
